LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Argentina: Laguna de Los Tres.

'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'

Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.

Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.

We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every couple of months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.

 By the end of 2023, the blog contained over 1,560 hikes (less than that actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.

Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end. Our reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."

"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

An afternoon on Iron Mountain, Poway, near San Diego

Sometimes one needs inspiration, sometimes not. After watching the stock market fall 250 points followed by a rise of 400, we decided to emulate it by driving down to Poway and hiking up Iron Mountain. It is a terrific hike, well suited to those looking for a gentle elevation gain of 1,100 feet over 6 miles return. A very nice place to spend time viewing interesting terrain, particularly, the activity in the sky.

'Clouds did not get in the way'--they made it quite special

Interesting weather for late summer--heavy rainfall of .0001 of an inch--Lucky we were on high ground

Sun clouds

Not bad at all..eat your heart out Sierras (okay, okay...just kidding)

A windy peak...for a change
